Juniper does not have a lot of guidelines on this. This is a bit
surprising to us too. I would have expect some guidelines about IRQ and
CPU pinning. It seems they think this does not matter much for a RR.
However, cRPD comes with better performance than vRR and therefore,
Juniper pushes to cR

AFAIK, cRPD is part of the same build pipeline as 'full' JUNOS, so if
there's a bug in any given version, it will catch you on Juniper's meta

Hi
I'm curious, when moving from vRR to cRPD, how do you plan to manage/setup
the infrastructure that cRPD runs on?
BMS with basic Docker or K8s? (kind of an appliance approach)
VM in hypervisor with the above?
Existing K8s cluster?
I can imagine that many networking teams would like an AIO cRPD

From a RPD, not cRPD perspective.
- 64GB is certainly fine, you might be able to do with 32GB
- Unless RRs are physically next to clients, you want to bump default
16kB TCP window to maximum 64kB window, and probably ask account team
for window scaling support (unsure if this is true for cRPD, or

Hey!
cRPD documentation is quite terse about resource requirements:

When used as a route reflector with about 20 million routes, what kind
of hardware should we use? Docume
